Developed by Nexon and based on Valve’s Counter-Strike series, Counter-Strike
Online 2 is the sequel to the phenomenally successful Counter-Strike
Online, which has been a popular title throughout Asia since its
launch in 2008. Counter-Strike Online is a team-based, tactical
FPS game that pits a team of terrorists against a team of
counter-terrorists in a series of rounds.

Powered by the Source engine, Counter-Strike Online 2 combines
the exciting plot and competitiveness of its predecessor with
higher-quality graphics, enhanced impact physics, a wider array of
weapons, equipment customization and new and improved environments. The
sequel also incorporates MMORPG elements with the addition of a new game
mode – “Big City” – in which 32 users can simultaneously play in an
urban setting.

“We are excited to deliver another installment of the highly successful Counter-Strike
Online franchise to players in Korea,” said Seungwoo Choi, President
and Chief Executive Officer of Nexon Co., Ltd. “We think players will
enjoy the crisp visuals, enhanced game mechanics, and other exciting new
features offered in this sequel.”
